Lyrics
Jesus You endured my pain
Savior You bore all my shame
All because of Your love
All because of Your love
Maker of the universe
Broken for the sins of the earth
All because of Your love
All because of your love
Because of Your cross my debt is paid
Because of Your blood my sins are washed away
Now all of my life, I freely give
Because of Your love
Because of Your love I live
Innocence and holy King
You died to set the captives free
All because of Your love
Lord You gave Your life for me
I will live my life to you
All because of Your love
All because of Your love
Because of Your cross my debt is paid
Because of Your blood my sins are washed away
Now all of my life, I freely give
Because of Your love
Because of Your love I live
You did it for me, You did it for love
It's Your victory, Jesus You are enough
You did it for me, You did it for love
It's Your victory, Jesus You are enough
You did it for me, You did it for love
It's Your victory, Jesus You are enough
Because of Your cross my debt is paid
Because of Your blood my sins are washed away
Now all of my life, I freely give
Because of Your love
Because of Your love I live

Meaning & Inspiration
Because of Your Love centers on Christ’s sacrificial death and the freedom that flows from it. Images of the cross, shed blood, paid debt, and washed sin present salvation as a gift secured by Jesus rather than personal merit. The description of the Maker of the universe being broken for the sins of the earth gives the song a strong contrast between divine majesty and willing humility. Its repeated title keeps love, rather than suffering alone, at the center of the message.
The response is surrender: a life freely given because Christ first gave his life. The declaration that Jesus is enough also connects his victory with the believer’s confidence and new way of living. These themes closely echo New Testament teaching about redemption through Christ’s blood and living in response to his self-giving love. Repetition in the closing lines turns the song from an account of Calvary into a sustained confession of gratitude, dependence, and devotion.
